Hi!!  
I need some help with a project. I need to put in images and when I push for example number 1 a certain image pops up and when I push number 2 another image shows up. I just don’t know how to do it.

</div>

in the keyPressed() function set a variable showWhichImage  
to 1 or 2, depending on your input

And then:

before setup()

`int showWhichImage=1;`

in draw() :

```auto
if(showWhichImage==1)
    image(a1,....
else if (showWhichImage==1)
    image(b1,....

```

Hey, and welcome to the forum!

Great to have you here!

Warm regards,
